SPRING'S PROMISE



ELEPHANT GARLIC Originally planted 8 years ago, this garlic has not been replanted in a planned way.  These are garlic from the self seeding little garlic bulbs, that are left behind during the harvest.  This year I am saving all the seed bulbs and will plant them as they should be.  These garlics are large, you are looking at the clove of garlic, yes, they are large, one clove equals the garlic. They have a wonderful taste, different from the small commercially cultivated garlic of California.  You can get these from your produce man at the local grocery store, just ask, then ask again, and finally they will get them in.
